Anyone who doesn't think strikeouts are overrated, think of this game.

Phillies struck out about 7 times in 4 innings. Also scored 5.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Loaded the bases. Heim 2 run double and Grossman 3 run HR.

No hitter prior to the inning, then a 5 run outburst.

I blame the clock.

Nice! Is there any way to watch outside of Bally's?

Not sure. I'm in the car listening to it while waiting on wife to get out of work.

What if those strikeouts weren't strikeouts?

Who knows but no one complains if guys are flying out or grounding out. Every single hitter makes more outs than hits.

The point is if you're productive you're productive.

If I'm seeing this right, we have to bases juiced again?

 

[Genghis Khan]

This is one of those innings.

 

[Genghis Khan]

9 run inning. Jesus Christ.

 

[Cotton]

20 bucks a month for Bally's. Fuck that shit.

Goes to get debit card.

Because I turned it off. You're welcome. (Except Geng.)

Even if you are flying out there is a chance to move runners. Strikeouts offer no chance for anything positive.

I thought they fixed that shit?

Not that I can tell. I couldn't find it anywhere else.

Flyouts lead to something positive way less than people like to imply.

A weak pop out to shallow center doesn't usually lead to anything positive but people don't complain about those.

Most of the time, an out is an out. But if a guy has an .800 OPS I don't really care if he strikes out 200 times.

We have 11 runs now, just FYI.

Yes I'm watching.

 

[Cotton]

Yes I'm watching.

Yeah, y'all got it on NBC there.

Asshole.

Asshole.

It's pretty nice.

 

[Cotton]

It's pretty nice.

I bet it is.
